President's messageJordan Engineers Association (JEA) was established in 1953 as “engineers’ society” to organize the services of few hundreds of engineers. Today, Jordan Engineers Association (JEA) is proud to have more than 125,000 members from all engineering sectors operating in different regions with a varied wide globally experience.

We are now leaders in the development of engineering practice, services and granting the membership privileges such as retirement benefits, health care, employment assistant and many other professional benefits to support the social security of its members.Serving and supporting its members, meet their needs and maintain their accreditation and code of ethics is the main goal for the JEA, all the activities of JEA is supporting this goal.The JEA is a great advocate to the sustainable development in Jordan and the Arabic region at all aspects, established the Engineers Training Center (ETC) on 1997 to provide educational and training programs, exchange the knowledge in various engineering topics, and qualify Jordanian engineers to lead the development process in Jordan and the Arabic region, the ETC has accreditation from the major international professional organizations including FIDIC, several new Engineering programs has been adopted in Jordan such as Building Information Modeling BIM, LEED Green building and working on adopting The AIA Contracts scheme.In addition to our professional responsibilities, our social responsibilities requires coordination and collaboration with all Government and non-government organization, including the private sector, providing the knowledge and technical support to the National Industry and Academia, our social responsibility also establish for our relationship with the international organization to support the sustainable development in Jordan.All JEA employees and branches around the world are doing their best to bring happiness, safety, and peace of mind to our 125,000 members and communities. As we work to achieve these goals, I would very much appreciate our partners efforts in supporting us to maintain the progress and development of engineering and consultancy sectors to meet the international standards and best engineering practice.

President of Jordan Engineers Association Eng. Majid Taba` Aug, 2015

EstablishmentJEA was established according to the Law No. (15) for the year 1972 and the Amending Laws thereon. Before that it was called "Engineering Professions Association" according to the Law No. (18) issued in the 1958, following the cancellation of the Law No. (59) issued in 1953 by which the first " Jordan Engineers Society" was incorporated in Jordan.

EmploymentTraining and Employment Section has been founded in 1992 with two main objectives:

• To give new graduates a better chance in finding jobs by training them in engineering firms and state departments. • To assist engineers find job opportunities available in both local and foreign markets.• To achieve the second objective, a program has been designed with the aim at providing help to local, Arab, and foreign employers in search for Qualified Jordanian Engineers.

Engineering Offices Order Complying with the "Engineering Offices By-Laws" No. (31) for the year 1989 an authorized order was formed to follow and study all is¬sues pertaining to the engineering office such: registration, classification and organizing the profession practice.The Board of this order shall be elected from the, owners of the engineering. offices.

Pension Fund & Social Security Insurance These two funds were put into force during the year 1973, aiming at increasing the income and expanding the services offered to the Association members.Various types of investment were carried out such as: real estate, electrical instruments, computers, cars, and shares.

Medical Insurance Offers medical care for the participating members and their families all over.
